    Would you wear a leather jacket grown in a lab?

    Sure I try to be ethical when buying leather in general. How do you guys find out where and how your leather is made? I'm assuming if it's tanned in a developed country then the animal was probably treated better? Am I a fool for assuming this?

    A couple of Lewis Leathers Bronx Jackets for sale

    Lewis leather makes really nice jackets. Something about them sets them apart and im unable to describe it.

    Himel Brothers Leather Co.

    I don't imagine this gets worn often in the warm LA weather? That is the only downside I can think of moving to cali (i really wanna move there). I wont have as many opportunities to wear my jackets. Only time would be while riding my motorcycle.

    Gustin Jeans Selvage Denim made in SF

    I've gotten stuff by them and ended up reselling it. There's just other stuff I'd rather wear and I find their product a bit plain. They are excellent quality though and work well for people who want simple well made goods.

    Ebay...price gouging fees.

    Yup, rule of thumb is buy from Ebay, don't sell. Too much hassle and fees. I'm thinking of selling all my stuff on here. I have some coats and shirts that may sell on here.

    Himel Brothers Leather Co.

    Also, does himel still offer that brown steer hide featured in that picture of that one pullover? I want to order a himel soon.

    Himel Brothers Leather Co.

    I'm mixed on two tone motorcycle jackets. I think black and brown are a safe choice but often they just look mediocre. When I think two tone i think a balance. Too much of one over the other doesn't really work for me unless its very minimal like the lapels and one pocket. Aero had one on...

    How do you ship leather jackets?

    Well, I was told by a guy I bought a jacket from on here that he sent it wrapped in plastic and then in a cardboard box. He said that the plastic is so the cardboard doesn't dry the leather. I'm guessing if it's going to be in transit for a while the cardboard could pull moister from the jacket?

    De-itching Pendleton shirts?

    This is why I'm not a fan of wool. Cause the stuff does not feel good wearing. I still happen to own like three wool button ups though ~_~

    Brooks Cafe Racer with removable lining

    I have here a Brooks with the original zip out vest for sale. It is size 40. I like this jacket and have worn it a good bit but it feels out of place in my collection and I have other jackets that need to be broken in. This jacket is on the light side and not thick or heavy. Asking $140...

    Ebay...price gouging fees.

    Ebay is only worth buying from if you can get a lowball offer accepted. Too risky to sell anything worth a large sum of money cause they are terrible at protecting their sellers. Also all the fees make it not worth it.

    Rakuten Global for jackets?

    Damn, I had no idea customs is so complex. When you buy from a distributor in the USA is the custom duties factored into the cost of the item? I've noted some items cost the same here as they do in their country

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    I actually have to eat a bit of crow lol. For the first time ever from my personal experience water affected my new boots. The leather heel insole started to peel up when taking off my new Lofgren boots. I pulled them off and just applied some leather cement to glue them back down (cost $6)...
